I've been pretty happy with the Adva FSP3000R7 units. Lots of options for 1g and 10g and they are very helpful with setup and design. There's a lot more to it than just coming up with an attenuation budget. --chip On Sat, May 22, 2010 at 11:52 AM, ML <ml@kenweb.org> wrote:
I'm in the process of researching DWDM equipment for a new ring I'm about to light. Only two dark fibers to start. My only experience with WDM is a ring lit with MRV CWDM equipment by another provider. The MRV equipment hasn't failed once in the years I've had the service. Good/bad/ugly thoughts on MRV?
What I'm looking for is the ability to drop 10G and 1G channels on the same ring. Upgradability to 40G channels is a plus. I haven't been told I should plan for OC-n but it would nice if I had the option.
Does anyone have a recommendation that might fit these requirements?
Thanks
